I will say it depends...........sometimes I crack myself up.

It depends on how bad things get and how long they stay bad. I don't remember the guys name but he wrote a book about surviving in the former Yugoslavia and it was quite interesting. While things like gold did always have some value things like canned ham had so much more value. Medical supplies even more value, soap was pretty darn high up there as well.

When the world goes to hell the people in hell will care less about gold and silver, they will want good water and some food shelter and warm clothes.

I wish I could remember the book as it is quite good, a bit of a downer but good.

Also don't think you are really going to be "living off the land" the larger game will be gone inside of a month or two, and the garden will likely be defended. Groups of 1 or 2 will quickly fall, small bands under 20 members will be able to defend what they have, travel in numbers if need be and have a schedule for defense of their area.

You can't eat gold.
You make excellent points but one point that I believe is missed regarding gold. If things go mad max gold is useless, however as has happened before things can be horrible, currencies collapse, people have to move but when rebuilding gold has a value. The fellow from Yugoslavia, Selco I believe was the name, made valuable observations on how things changed in value. Of course if he was able to get out of Yugoslavia earlier gold would have been very helpful in those areas not in such despair.

“The election was stolen,” Warner said, “and it was stolen by the CIA.”

To explain what he meant, Warner cited forming Acting CIA Director Michael Morell’s testimony under oath to the House Judiciary Committee that then-Biden campaign adviser Antony Blinken had “reached out” to Morell after a damning story sourced to Hunter Biden’s laptop broke. Blinken’s outreach, Morell testified, “set in motion the events that led to the issuance of” a letter attempting to discredit the laptop story.

“Yes, [Morell] colluded with [now-Secretary of State] Antony Blinken to sell a lie to the American people two weeks before the election for the very purpose of throwing the presidential election,” Warner explained. “And the FBI covers it up. And Mark Zuckerberg pays $400 million to put his thumb on the scales. That’s not fair.”
 
You have some good things to say, but please learn where the shift key is, it is hard for this old man to read this.

Libertarians are real big in personal liberty/freedoms they are also real big on if you do something stupid while "on" those freedoms you will pay the price. I am very OK with this.

It is also a little more complex then you lay out. Some real hard decisions need to be made about a few things. What do you do with the homeless druggies crapping in the street? I have my view but it is pretty un popular. Do you have any programs to try to "save" people if they get in too deep. Addition is one hell of a thing.

And don't get me started on Dr's. Me falling apart I see them quite often, but I do think they are, or at least many are not doing things for your best interest. They keep pushing Statin drugs on me, they totally fuck me sideways with a chain saw, we tell them this and they push it like a dealer. Two different Dr.'s. I just quit taking them when my brain really started to fall out of my head. I actually feel better now.
Recent studies came out saying statins don't work...same with anti-depressants...

Seems more of the "twin jets" are falling from the sky. Poor maintenance ?

Jeff Ford, the chairman of the Bath County Airport Authority, told the station a twin jet reported needing to make an emergency landing right before the crash.

 

  • Engineers urged Alaska Airlines to check the doomed jet after two warning lights sounded in the days before the near-disaster
  • The airliner decided the jet should take three more flights before its servicing, with the door blowing out on the second flight
  • Boeing's repeat issues have now caused its stock to all the furthest behind rival Airbus in its history
 
Fuck Google and Gemini. I don't easily get offended at all but when I saw THIS shit, it more than just offended me:

The heroes and martyrs of the American Revolution were real life men, with entire lives, emotions, families, experiences, and human legacies. They sacrificed EVERYTHING they got going up against the most powerful empire of their time. They fought, marched, starved, shivered, and suffered terribly on lonely fields worrying about their families back home, constantly wondering if they would go home one day and find their beloved wives and children tomahawked and scalped by British Indian allies, or raped and then savagely butchered by Tories and loyalist militias. They were real people and sacrificed all they got, and then fucking Gemini does that shit??? That is the ultimate form of disrespect. Being part of the Patriot and gun community all my life has taught me that it takes EMPATHY to have conservative leanings. Leftists have none, and their camp has the highest amount of pathological narcissists and outright psychopaths.

Bravo. Well said…

I think many of us have been feeling…well, something…for years now. I know I have. A slowly building angst, and sense that something’s just not right. But as men of action, and raised to not bitch about the how or why, we just put our heads down and work harder to move forward.

Smarter, or maybe I should say ‘more aware‘ folks saw the “how and why” a lot sooner than most…including me, but the left is getting so literally crazy now that everyone’s waking up. And ironically becoming more and more anti-“woke” LoL

You just put into words something that I’ve been feeling for a long time…thanks for that.

There was a blog/forum thread from a guy who lived through it as well…. Might have even been here on the hide.

These videos are posted on utoob. I highly recommend parting with the coin for the books.

I'm assuming since they have been freely available on utoob for multiple years they don't violate any of the quintillion stupid utoob rules so they might be OK here.

If this is not correct let me know and I'll take it down or feel free to delete it and I'll eat my crow.
